Reinier Zeeman (1623/24-1664) — [Antique print, etching] Sailor walking with a large flag, published 1650.
Title print of a set of twelve plates with sea- and landscapes. A sailor is walking towards the right, holding a large flag on which the title and indications on the publisher are reported: 'Recueil de plusieurs Nauires, et Paisages fait apres le naturel par R. Zeeman 1650. / Et se vendent a Paris chez I. van Merlen rue S. Iacques a la Ville d'Anvers.'According to the Hollstein, due to the variety of subjects present in this set, it is likely that the publisher himself, Jacques van Merle (1616-1662), collected the plates and decided to publish them together.
